Mud City Old-Time Jam

We’ve been hosting old-time jams in Eugene since 2011!
Public open jams are a really important part of the old-time ecosystem; however,
there are some inherent challenges involved, as well. We’ll be taking a break
during the summer festival season (make sure to get out there!), but we at Mud
City are working on some ideas to revamp the structure of the jam to create a
more focused musical experience and to help distribute the workload of hosting.
We will reconvene in the Fall of 2018 with a new and improved experience and location!

In the meantime, we will get together in backyards and on front
porches during these warm months to share some tunes, food, and drinks
together! We will be hosting some backyard square dance house parties where we
can practice calling and playing for dances in fun, low-pressure environments. Let
us know if you’d like to host a house party and we’ll help organize it!

New to old-time music or jamming? Visit our resources page for lots of great information. Stay tuned… literally!

Mud City Old-Time Slow Jam

Do you have an event to share?

The Mud City calendar lists old-time jams open to the community, as well as
select music events, dances and performances. We love to promote local
and visiting old-time musicians and performers (or other
closely-related genres)! If you'd like to submit events for possible
addition to the Mud City calendar, use our "Gig Collector" form!
